Louisiana Attorney General Buddy Caldwell joined his colleagues from nine other states in requesting that President Barack Obama's administration take immediate legislative action to fix the Affordable Care Act, commonly known as Obamacare.

The attorneys general, including Caldwell, criticized the piecemeal manner in which the Affordable Care Act was being implemented and the technological failures of the federal government's enrollment website in a five-page letter to U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius.

"It is not only unfair but impractical to require that Americans purchase insurance -- or lose their current coverage due to changes in the law -- when the exchange website is almost completely unusable," states the letter written on the stationary of West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey.

The letter also raises security and privacy concerns. The attorneys general questioned whether the appropriate safeguards were in place to protect the personal information of people who use healthcare.gov to purchase insurance.

They also called for background checks on navigators, the people who been have hired locally to help the public enroll in health insurance programs offered through the Affordable Care Act.

In addition to Caldwell, attorneys general from West Virginia, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Kansas, South Carolina, Texas, Oklahoma and Utah signed the letter below.
